Hello, The discussion on Dell's survery about pre-installing a Linux distro has made me think of a slightly different approach. Rather than being prompted by things like a survey, maybe we should be more pro-active. Are there any groups in the FreeBSD community actively going to manufacturers and offering to assist them with instructions/information on how to include FreeBSD as a pre-installed option. Perhaps if we go to manufacturers and offer to hold their hand and walk them through every step necessary to make pre-installing FreeBSD as simple as possible, then who knows what will happen? If we offer to do the work for them, so they have to do as little as possible, then they might turn around and say, great, we would love to have another pre-install option. Just a thought, Tim. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need Mail bonding? Go to the Yahoo! Mail Q&A for great tips from Yahoo!
